New previews for the ultra rare Magic cards are up. They typically have a strange alternate border compared to typical cards.
... they look like shit. Leaning a bit TOO hard in the NotEgypt theme.
please tell me, at the very least, that when you said "ultra rare" you meant "mythic rare" and not that wizards has created a fifth rarity level
It's basically a super-foil.
It's a reprint, with a special foil treatment and new art.
Rarer than other foils, and the reprint doesn't effect legality. In other words, this card (Consecrated Sphinx) is not legal in standard despite appearing in a new set.
every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.
life's a game that you're bound to lose / like using a hammer to pound in screws
fuck up once and you break your thumb / if you're happy at all then you're god damn dumb
that's right we're on a fucked up cruise / God is dead but at least we have booze
bad things happen, no one knows why / the sun burns out and everyone dies
I booked my trip to Seattle in August in order to attend The International again. Gonna be a good week.
Probably going to un-book my hotel in order to stay in a shithole and Uber, but *for now* I have a half decent hotel reserved within walking distance of the event. Problem is it's like $300/night, which would be a pretty massive expense.

This is amazing and I would be delighted to have its unabashed garish awfulness shining out from amidst its lesser brethren. I haven't even comprehended anything about the card yet other than UUU ahaha 4UU and Creature, that's how badical it is.

Do people watch the game in cosplay and/or team jerseys? Seems like it would be a really fun ambiance.

They are 100% playable in Drafts, though. Which is a really nasty surprise.
I oppose textless cards on principle (they're unfriendly to new players and they promote rules-lawyering).
But yeah that art for Wrath of God is rad.
Also, the black colorshifted version is awesome
I prefer this method for full art stuff:
yeah I get that.
They're good for lands at the very least!
I had a set of these that I loved though:

For stuff that's been in the game forever and is simple I don't think it's a big deal. Somebody wants to use a textless Terror or Wrath of God, that's cool.
It's this fucking bullshit that makes me side-eye:

but they don't really do textless cards anymore so I'm just bitching over a moot point

I used to make a decent chunk of change altering Magic cards, that was fun.

Yes to both, though the cosplays tend to have a dedicated area for the more complex ones due to weaponry+bulk. If you're just dressed as like, Kunkka (pimp-ass pirate, basically), you can do it from the regular seats if you want.

the light rail system makes it really easy to get to and from downtown from a cheaper area
if your'e cool with airbnb there's places like this which are a 5 minute walk to the link

So I left my class to go home and to put my shit in my car. Next to my car is another car with a dog in it. When I went to go put my shit in my car, dog started barking at me.

It took me a minute to even piece together they were actual Magic cards and not some weird, other TCG.

it's funny how the arguments for and against are basically entirely reversed now

Is good. I get to be a cyborg lady with white hair wearing a blindfold doing ninja shit.
I dropped 8 lbs, lightest I've ever been in and I'm still going up in weight training.

yeah they're doing a lot more full art basic lands now.
Not every single set yet. They're alternating years.
This plane is under the control of the dragon Nicol Bolas, so those are his horns you see looming on the horizon. Pretty well done IMO.

I apparently never uploaded the Black Lotus, I should try to dig that picture up because it turned out nice I think.
I guess I'm not going home today.
what a country
Fucking hell
just do an airbnb like a true millennial
